Rutile has the anisotropic elasticity. The deformation under uniform pressure is solved.
The deformation, the displacement distribution, and the stress distribution are solved.
Unless specified in the list below, the default conditions will be applied.
Results will vary depending on Femtet version and the PC environment.

A cubic solid body is created. The material is rutile which has the anisotropic elasticity.
The anisotropic axis is oriented to (1, 1, 1), which is set on the direction tab of the body attribute.
The compressive pressure is set by the outer boundary condition.

The vectors of displacement are shown below.
The displacement is shown below. The contour indicates the magnitude of displacement.
(X, Y, Z)=(1, 1, 1) exhibits the lowest compressive displacement.
The vectors of internal stress are shown below.
The pressure is applied uniformly, hence the internal stress is -1 [MPa] uniformly.
